I swallow down the bile rising in my throat as the train approaches the station where I am supposed to get off. I wish I could run away, but Adeline has been without me long enough. As the train begins to slow I stand up. The bulk and knowledge I accumulated while at Alpha training is impressive, but I still feel like the old Atticus as I approach my prison. I feel scared and weak. I fear my return home won't be anything but an interrogation and possibly pain. Father might even consider my new physique to be threatening. I grab my bag and move to the door. Unknown- Think of something else. Maybe Karina is still here... Maybe you can give me a name. I roll my eyes at my wolf's request. He has been mentioning the fact he doesn't have a name for two months and I still don't have any idea what to call him. I step out onto the platform and the door slides close behind me almost instantly. I am relieved to see no one waiting for me this time and begin to head in the direction of

Rated R Trigger warning."Strap him to the wall and let's begin. I have places to be," Father grunts as he absently glances toward the females in cells just around the corner. Roger and a new lackey who I don't recognize take my wrists. I turn willingly and allow them to bind my ankles and wrists to the stained wood my father has used to hurt me for years.Getting whipped hurts, but the strength behind the lashes from my father's men isn't that powerful. Most of them are omegas and workers from other packs. Pair their strength with the fact silver doesn't hurt me much anymore and I can get through being whipped pretty easily. It would be a different story if an Alpha took a whip to my back. Plus this is for Adeline.I wasn't lying when I told her I was happy she tried to escape this place. I would take endless punishment if she wants to continue to attempt freedom, but I can't guarantee my father would only punish me. He might kill her and I would lose what little soul I have left.

KARINA POV 18! I am actually 18! The thought keeps circling my mind as I brush out my brown hair and pull on my workout clothes. Although I am excited about the fact today is my birthday I have no time to sit and ponder what being 18 truly means to me. I have to leave the house soon. Sparing is in twenty minutes and everyone over eight years old has to attend. Alpha Kincaid does not tolerate absences. Other than the thoughts running through my mind today is like every other. Mom and Dad are already hard at work in the fields trying to turn a crop with the other workers. I am supposed to get training done, help clean the clinic, and get home to prepare food. It's lonely sometimes at home, but I am used to them not being here. They work hard to help the others suffering here. We will be able to celebrate my birthday tonight when we are all home together. I hurry out the backdoor of our cabin with a forced smile on my face. The smile I wear whenever I am outside of my home. T

KARINA POV I cry while blindly filling my backpack with clothes and essentials as fast as I can. I need to get out of here. I won't be like Sophia. I won't stay and hope for him to change his mind. I won't compete for the right to have what's mine. I will leave. I will be free of this place. I will go where all rejected wolves go. I will go to Outcast. I will no longer live in fear. My smiles will be real. I will be happy. This pack is doomed under the Kincaid reign. I wouldn't have been a strong enough Luna to fix the problems here anyway. In Outcast I won't have to fix anything. Life should be simple. The wood floors creak and I freeze so I can listen with all my might. I don't want my parents to know I'm leaving just in case they try to keep me from going. There is a law against anyone leaving. Alpha even made it to where the train doesn't stop inside our pack. I have to travel to a neighboring pack to be able to board. My parents might be too scared to let me leave becaus

KARINA POV I can't help but pick at my cracked cuticles mindlessly as the support group talks to another rejected wolf who will be shifting with me. The other wolf is a male. An omega male who seems utterly distraught to be doing this without his mate. The support group already took the time to explain what would happen to me in twenty minutes and expressed how sorry they were that I wouldn't be experiencing this with my mate or family. I thanked them and told them I was ready for my first shift just so they would move on. Plus, the other wolf needs them more. I know the group means well, but their words of support and understanding weren't making me feel better. They were making me feel lonelier and more anxious. I look up at the dark sky and sigh. I can't help but wonder what Atticus is doing right now. Is he as nervous as I am? Is he explaining to his father he will be shifting tonight and that he rejected his weak mate who wouldn't have won the competition? Is he missi

ATTICUS AGE 20 I keep my eyes straight as Rupert growls and grumbles about the fact his new ally is late to their meeting. I couldn't care less about who is coming or when. I don't even care about what my Father's next plan is. It is never good so I don't concern myself. Rupert promised that if I came with him today and behaved appropriately I would be able to see Adeline. I haven't seen my sister in six months. Not since her last escape attempt... Father built her an inescapable cell and hasn't let anyone know where it is. I am starting to think she might be dead, which is why Father is probably caving. I can feel my bonds to the pack ripping and if they become severed completely I will be a lone wolf. I won't have to listen to his commands. Something I learned at that stupid Alpha training. But if he shows me Adeline my bonds will probably heal. "Where the fuck is he," Rupert snarls as he punches an Oak tree. I don't answer. Nor do I flinch. Violent outbursts no longer af

ATTICUS AGE 22 I pick up the new shirt and look it over with cautious eyes. Father only provides me with new clothes when he needs me to make some kind of an impression. "Let me see, boy," his voice growls through the door and I yank the stretchable fabric over my head. I open the door to my small bedroom and his eyes immediately look me over. "That will do. Your muscles are on display for the Thurmans to gawk at," he snaps, and my right eyebrow raises. I haven't heard anything about the Thurmans in a while. I know Father has remained interested in their land, but I put those thoughts in the back of my mind. He and his female spy haven't spoken in months so I thought he wouldn't be doing anything with them for a while. "Thurmans? Are we meeting with them," I ask before I can stop myself and it's his turn to look surprised. "Look at you asking questions... Thurman has sent his bitch to the dungeons. Since none of the other females have provided me another heir I want to see if T

ATTICUS POV Rupert slows down when we get about a hundred yards from the Thurman's packhouse. Rage is still rolling off of him in waves, but there is a smirk on his face that tells me he is up to something. When I get right beside him he shoots me a look that reads as pure hatred though. "If you ever grab my arm like that again Boy you will lose your hand," Rupert growls and I nod once. I don't know what came over me back there for me to even touch him, but I did. "Yes, Father," I mumble to appease him. "Chances are we won't be leaving these lands, which is fine by me. I just admitted to plotting with their ex Luna so that dumb Beta should have me arrested at any moment. If they do throw me in a cell it's up to you to provide the distraction. I have to coordinate the attack so I can't be in a cell. Remember who owns you and your sister. Adeline will be safe as long as you play along. She will be off to become a Luna as soon as the battle is over," Rupert states under

ATTICUS POV "Fucking wake up," I faintly hear as my eyes begin to flutter open. I feel like I slept for a whole week. My body is heavy and my brain is groggy, but I feel refreshed. "Fucking piece of shit," Father suddenly snarls and I sit up quickly. For a second I forgot I was out of his reach. I thought he was cer me. I slowly wipe the sleep from my eyes and clear my throat. "Yes," I croak and he growls. "Finally! I been trying to wake you for an hour. The guards should be coming around soon and I need you to pay attention," Father snaps, and I roll my eyes. I wish he wasn't here. If he wasn't imprisoned with me this would be my ideal situation. I could still be asleep enjoying the covers and solid bed. "Yes, Alpha," I reply before forcing my body to stand. I stretch my back and yawn loudly. Having a pillow to sleep on was a different kind of experience. It may have been the flattest pillow ever made, but it was like sleeping on a cloud. "The female said t

ATTICUS POV Waking up from a hard sleep is something I don't think I could ever get used to. My mind is foggy and my body is sore even though it hasn't done anything for hours.I can tell it is early from the chill in the air so I test the prison with my nose before calling out to Rupert. "Father," I call calmly and he grunts. "About time. Snoring away over there as if the silver has absolutely zero effect on you. I was beginning to think you would sleep until the trial," Rupert growls weakly and I realize with smug satisfaction that the silver is affecting him. I don't reply to his comment instead I wait. He will have orders for me and that is the only reason I am speaking with him at all. "Once you leave she will slip in and let me out. She has also agreed to help with the fight. You don't need to do anything else," Father finally says, and I grab the bars of my cell. "What about Adeline? She is still too young to mate," I say and he laughs a little. "I would worr
